TL;DR: In this article, the characterization of cementitiously stabilized layers and the properties that influence pavement performance are discussed, as well as performance-related procedures for characterizing these layers and performance-prediction models for incorporation into the mechanistic-empirical pavement analysis methods.

TL;DR: In this article, the shape of the SWCC depends on compaction water content and compactive effort, and compaction effort is more important than water content, while compaction at higher water content or with greater effort results in larger air entry suction and a steeper SWCC.

TL;DR: The benefits of using recycled materials in highway pavements was assessed quantitatively by conducting life cycle analysis and life-cycle cost analysis on pavements consisting of conventional and recycled materials for a highway construction project in Wisconsin this paper.

TL;DR: Remediation strategies that use HNO(3) or H(2)SO(4) to neutralize COPR or to maximize Cr( VI) in solution are likely to require extensive amounts of acid, may not mobilize all of the Cr(VI), and may require extended contact time, even under well-mixed conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, a rating system is introduced that employs life-cycle analysis techniques to provide a quantitative assessment of the environmental and economic sustainability of highway designs, including energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, life cycle cost, and other factors.
